Boat Share – One season lease 5 months of a 2004 35’ Sea Ray Sundancer

This is a great opportunity for anyone to use a wonderful boat this summer for a fraction of the price of full ownership.  The boat is in a slip at Burnham Harbor. The season goes from May through October, sign up now and enjoy the entire season.


A very clean and well-maintained freshwater boat, it’s been a great boat for our family and can be a great boat for yours for a fraction of the price and none of the headaches of full ownership.  The boat can very comfortably hold 6-10 people with a max of 12 people on board at a time due to US Coast Guard regulations.

  

The boat comes with a Raymarine Radar & GPS. Excellent condition cosmetically and mechanically, and a new Blue Tooth Fusion stereo. The cabin is equipped with AC & Heater system, head with vacuflush unit, shower and hot water heater, two AC/DC refrigerators, microwave, cooktop and sink with lots of storage space/cabinets, TV w/remote, 6’ 5” headroom below, very nice interior upholstery. A 4 person inflatable raft, Stand Up Paddle board for paddling around the harbor or Playpen.

  

The boat partners must be over 35 years old, have boating experience. If you don’t have experience driving a boat like this or would rather enjoy having a few cocktails while out on the lake, you would have to hire a captain to drive it each time.

 

You pay for the gas you use each time you take the boat out. It’s an average of about $100 in fuel per 4-hour trip to the Playpen and back.
